The purpose of the present invention is to provide a grinding material which has a superior grinding rate and planarizing accuracy, with the grinding rate being less likely to be reduced over a relatively long period of time. The present invention is directed to a grinding material including a base, a grinding layer overlaid on a front face side of the base and including grinding grains and a binder for the grinding grains, and an adhesion layer overlaid on a back face side of the base, in which the grinding grains are diamond grinding grains, a wear quantity of the grinding layer as determined by a Taber abrasion test is no less than 0.03 g and no greater than 0.18 g, and, an Asker D hardness measured from a front face side of the grinding layer is no less than 80° and no greater than 98°.

A method for producing a groove pattern on a cylinder surface includes providing an abrasive module, including an abrasive mesh article and collector block, providing a patterning head, which including the abrasive module and pressing actuator, pressing the abrasive module against the cylinder surface by using the actuator, forming a plurality of grooves on the cylinder surface by causing relative motion between the abrasive module and cylinder surface, and drawing gas through the abrasive mesh article to collect particles released from the cylinder surface. The abrasive mesh article includes a plurality of abrasive grains bonded to a flexible mesh backing, defining openings. The collector block has a curved supporting surface defining openings. The abrasive mesh article is attached to the curved supporting surface by a releasable fastening system. The openings of the flexible mesh backing are in communication with the openings of the collector block via the releasable fastening system.

A multilayer anti-slip compact structure for individual/joint application on a forehand and/or a backhand side of a hockey stick blade, which contains a backing carrier (A) and an anti-slip layer (B) applied on said backing carrier (A), wherein the backing carrier (A) contains a first layer with thickness max. 0.3 mm and tensile strength min. 400 N and weight max. 130 g/m.sup.2; on the first layer, a second resin or glue layer (3) with thickness max. 0.1 mm containing polyurethane, polyacrylate, organic resin or suitable polymer, or their combination; and the anti-slip layer (B) is formed by a third resin layer (5) with content of epoxide and/or phenol or polymer with thickness max. 0.1 mm and weight max. 250 g/m.sup.2. The first layer of the backing carrier (A) is formed by a plastic film (1) from a polymer or a fibre/net structure (2) from fibres containing cotton, viscose, glass fibres, plastic fibres, polyester fibres, or their combination.

The present disclosure provides an abrasive article. The abrasive article includes a base. The abrasive article further includes a plurality of soft shaped abrasive particles distributed about the base.

The present invention relates generally to coated abrasive articles that include a blend of abrasive particles, an increased tear resistance, or combinations thereof, as well as methods of making and using said coated abrasive articles.

The present disclosure provides abrasive articles that include an abrasive layer having a contact surface, a first layer coupled to the abrasive layer, and a second layer coupled to the first layer. The first layer is configured to provide contact pressure to the abrasive layer, such as through a higher hardness than the second layer. The second layer is configured to provide conformability to the abrasive layer, such as through a higher compressibility than the first layer. The resulting abrasive articles may exert a consistent contact pressure against a substrate with increased conformability around the substrate, reduced hysteresis, improved removal rate consistency, and/or improved lifetime over abrasive articles that do not use the multiple layer construction described above.

A method of making a coated abrasive article is disclosed. A backing has first and second opposed major surfaces. A make layer precursor is disposed on at least a portion of the first major surface. Magnetizable abrasive particles are disposed onto the make layer precursor while under the influence of an applied magnetic field. At least a majority the magnetizable abrasive particles extend away from the make layer precursor in an orientation substantially aligned with the applied magnetic field. Non-magnetizable particles are then disposed onto the make layer precursor while under the influence of the applied magnetic field. At least some of the non-magnetizable particles are disposed between the magnetizable abrasive particles. Then, the make layer precursor is at least partially cured to provide a make layer.
